Yet more eggs & live babies!

Benny I expect you of all people to spank me for this. Well JoJackson hasn't chimed in yet.

Why on Earth????

Very cool species! I wonder if the young are capable of their famous defence mechanism? Mind, not too blood in a tiny lizard so Id try not to provoke it!
I hope you'll do the best you can with them before releasing in spring?

Whats the idea with the folic/citric acid? Dont you mean 'Formic' acid ?
This was used on feeders in trials with Molochs here in Oz, with very limited success.
UV cant hurt them and is probly a good idea given their sun loving nature.

The two species do have some similarities.

Good luck, Cute Babies!

So you were correct, she was full of babies!

Cute little buggers Laurie, but I am going to have to go against the grain and say..." I don't want one"... If I get anything else I am going to be thrown out!

Very nice breadies, they are so small.

These aren't beardies, they are baby horny toads. Way, way, different and harder to keep than my beardies.

I did a bit of research on these guys in the past. I found a pretty cool feeder for adult phrynosoma. http://www.phrynosoma.com/

I used to catch these as well. I raised one for about a year then let him go. Very cool babies, I didn't know they were live bearing. There used to be a lot of horny toads in texas, however, feral cats / fire ants (both are invasive species ) have really hurt their populations.

This brings up a good trivia question. How many ovoviviparous species of reptiles are there that are native to the U.S.? Don't answer in this thread, I don't want to hijack it. I will start a new one called Trivia Question of the day...

Hey stranger. Those are some cute little buggers. I hope all is well with you Laurie.
